Or should I just not bother with front V6 springs?

are you only interested in the lowering or are you still concerned with teh handling of the car? full weight car with V6 springs in front and V8 springs in the rear is going to handle like garbage.
it would prolly drop the front of the car an inch or so, guesstimate. along with the shorter tire you would be looking at a totally redneck style rake.
if you have 275/45's all around now, just go to a 255/45 or 275/40. that would drop about 1/2 inch, that sounds more like the stance you are going for, jsut a little rake.
